i would say they are looking pretty well ready to me..... to make sure you could get a hand micro scope and see is the trichomes have nice big mushroom heads.......

Look at the trichomes and they'll tell you when it's ready. It looks like from the picture that most of the pistils have turned orange so I'd check soon. I wait until about 25-50% of the pistils are orange and then I start to watch the trichs. And when you chop should depend on the high you want from the smoke. I like an inbetween high so I chop mine when they're mostly cloudy with some amber. They start out clear, and then progress from clear to cloudy to amber. Clear to cloudy= a clearer high, and cloudy to amber= more of a couchlock high. Sorry if I rambled, and I hope this helps a little.

Thanks BigJesse. And Gotot...I think we all wish they would have been bigger, but alot of it depends on alot of different things. Light, nutes, temps, etc... Growing I've noticed is like alot of things, the more you do it the better you get. Good luck.

no, that was very helpful. i was just expecting the buds to be a lot bigger which kind of sucks

They might not be giants but they look dense at least. Yes?

Could you post a photo with a lighter or something as a reference?

Nice Job. I'm about 2 weeks away from harvest and I can't wait.

in the first pic the length of the top bud is about the size of a lighter... i can't tell if they're dense because all the leaves are in the way!.. all i know is my shit's nowhere near the size of my fist and that's what i was looking for

Not the ladies I'm flowering now, and not the clones I have, but the next batch is going to be some Kahuna from Soma Seeds. You should try that strain if you're looking really good giant buds. Blueberry from Dutch Passion is also a big budder. With both strains I've gotten colas the size of my forearm.

I would let them go two weeks. I flush with molasses for the first week and plain water for the second. If you can bubble your water/molasses mix for 30min before feeding its even better. I just got on doing SCROG, if you want higher yield this is a great way. I wonder now why I was trying anything else.
